Ren Xiaoyao, Bingbing and Aofeng, together with those Shi Clansmen, came to the place where the Divine Rock was located.

At this time, around the Divine Rock, there were hundreds of Shi clan disciples, under the leadership of their patriarch, building fortifications in full swing. And their so-called fortifications are not simply building castles, digging trenches and traps, but are extremely technical.

Because the Stone Clan has a strong control over soil and stone, and this space floating island is all made of earth and stone, so their defensive offensive is also made of earth and stone.

I saw that many Shi people worked together, constantly pointing and pointing on the ground, and controlling those stones weighing thousands of catties in the air, but without any effort. Moreover, hundreds of Shi clan disciples worked together, and there was no disorder at all, and everyone had an orderly division of labor and tacit understanding.

Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but secretly marvel at himself, and when he saw the patriarch of the Shi clan walking towards him, he took the initiative to greet him, and praised: "The patriarch is really well-trained, and your clansmen are working together, and the degree of tacit understanding is amazing!"

The patriarch of the Shi clan accepted this compliment, obviously extremely happy and proud, and replied modestly: "Of course, our sons and daughters of the Shi clan have basically cooperated together for at least a hundred years, and it will still work if they don't have a tacit understanding? ”

"Hmm. Ren Xiaoyao nodded subconsciously, and was about to say the next words, but he was suddenly stunned.

He suddenly recalled what the patriarch of the Shi clan had just said: "It's all simple work, just drawing runes and cloth arrays......

"Did I hear it wrong? Patriarch, what you just said, but how to draw runes and set up formations?"

"Yes, drawing runes and arranging formations are just two simple tasks that make Miko-sama smile. The patriarch said disapprehantly.

But when Ren Xiaoyao heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head, full of disbelief. Drawing runes and arranging arrays is indeed a few simple words, but the work it represents is definitely not simple - at least for Ren Xiaoyao, it is not simple at all!

Drawing runes represents a lost profession - rune master.

The formation represents another high-end ability - formation.

Whether it is the art of inscription talisman or the art of formation, it is extremely profound, especially the former, in the three-star holy state, it has been lost for thousands of years, and there are very few talismans handed down now, any one of which is a priceless treasure!

As soon as the patriarch of the Shi clan said it casually, it actually involved the art of captives and the art of formation, which made Ren Xiaoyao have to be surprised. And listening to the tone of the patriarch of the Shi clan, it seems that he doesn't take these two abilities seriously, which makes Ren Xiaoyao even more surprised.

The so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing, Ren Xiaoyao suppressed the surprise in his heart, and quickly came to the fortifications that were being built. He wanted to see with his own eyes whether the formation technique and the inscription technique were really used in these fortifications.

Flying straight down, Ren was about to land in front of a defensive wall that was about to be completed.

But as soon as he wanted to fall, the moment he was about to set foot on the ground, he stumbled and almost fell! If it weren't for his strong balance, he would have made a big appearance this time!

The reason why this is so is because at the moment when he is "down-to-earth", he does not really set foot on the ground, but falls into the illusion formed by the formation. When you step on the illusion, you can't naturally step on it, so you almost fell to the ground.

After such a small episode, Ren Xiaoyao used the Netherworld Breaking Demon Eye, and only then could he see through the illusion and fall to the ground.

At this time, Ren Xiaoyao had already believed most of the words of the patriarch of the Shi clan - at least the formation technique he said was true, and he was not shallow, and he was able to deceive himself who had not used the Netherworld Demon Eye! Such a formation could basically deceive most people.

Coming to the front of the stone wall, Ren Yao carefully observed the stone wall and stroked it with his hand.

On the wall, there are faint lines depicted, and you can't find it if you don't look carefully. The runes are criss-crossed and complex, so that Ren Xiaoyao can't see the clue at all!

Of course, it would be strange if he could understand these runes, after all, these runes are the most authentic inscription talisman techniques, although most of them are very simple, but for Ren Xiaoyao, who has not entered the door, it is tantamount to a book from heaven and a ghost drawing talisman.

Seeing these strange runes, Ren Xiaoyao already knew that the inscription rune technique that the patriarch of the Shi clan said was also true. This made him feel terrified in his heart, he originally thought that the Shi Clan had nothing to do except be loyal, after all, after thousands of years of succession, the Shi Clan population had gradually declined, and even the head of the clan only had the strength of the ninth layer of the Venerable Realm.

For such a race, although Ren Xiaoyao cares about their loyalty, he will not be too important, after all, he can play a limited role. But at this moment, Ren Xiaoyao's view has completely changed.

This hand inscription technique alone was enough for him to change his opinion of the Shi Clan!

Coupled with the technique of formation, the combination of the two will make the formation, the talismans and talismans drawn by the Shi clan have stronger power. And these two points are enough for the Shi Clan to come in handy and bring unexpected value to Ren Xiaoyao!

These formation stone walls with runes not only attracted Ren Xiaoyao's attention, but also attracted the interest of Aofeng and Bingbing.

Both of them are also strong on one side, and they can be said to be two incomparable giants in the Holy Pole Star. However, both of them don't know anything about rune arts, so they are also very curious. As for the formation, Bingbing didn't understand it at all, but Ao Feng knew some, but the formation he studied was not the same as the formation that the Shi clan was arranging at the moment.

The two of them flew down with great interest, wandering back and forth between the stone walls, like two pious and studious apprentices, stealing teachers to their heart's content.

The people of the Shi clan did not hide their secrets, and in front of them, they continued to depict runes and arrange formations, and all kinds of ingenious skills were displayed in front of them without concealment.

It didn't take long for Aofeng to get some inspiration in the formation, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

And after Bingbing looked at it for a while, it seemed that because he couldn't understand it, he didn't have much interest. She came to Ren Xiaoyao with great interest, smiled maliciously, coughed dryly, and said: "Ahem, didn't you just say that you were going to point out other people's fortifications?

"Uh......"

Ren Xiaoyao suddenly blushed and was speechless.

Indeed, the thing he pointed out just now was said by him himself, and when he said it, he looked like he was coaxing. Originally, there was nothing wrong with him doing that, after all, his strength was indeed a cut above the Shi Clan, and it was natural to guide them.

But what I didn't expect was that the Shi clan still had the ability to hide the two skills of pressing the bottom of the box with the art of inscriptions and formations, and they suddenly showed up, which made Ren Xiaoyao a little unable to get off the stage.

Now, pretending to be forced to the point where it is difficult to speak, Ren Xiaoyao has become a bitter force.

He could only laugh, wave his hand and say, "Well, ah...... I think this fortification is doing a good job, and it is on par with the level I have instructed. So, I don't think I need to point out. Hehehe......"

After saying this, Bingbing naturally understood that he was playing a round for himself, but he didn't continue to expose it, but stuck out his tongue at him and turned away. When the patriarch of the Shi clan heard this, he stepped forward as if he had heard the supreme praise, and said, "Thank you Lord Shenzi for your affirmation! Lord Shenzi's words will definitely make my Shi clan disciples more motivated to do things!"

But hearing the stone patriarch's sycophancy, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't be proud. He can't pretend to be this force today, and if he slaps his swollen face and becomes fat, he will only make Bingbing and Aofeng see jokes.

However, the previous pretense was just a few casual plays, and with his relationship with Aofeng and Bingbing, no one would take it seriously, let alone laugh at Ren Yaoyao because of this. But there will definitely be a run, which Bingbing has just done.

Ren Xiaoyao and Bingbing continued to circle between the many stone walls, but since they didn't have a beginner, they couldn't see any way for a while.

But Aofeng is different. At this time, Aofeng had already entered a state of madness - he was frantically absorbing knowledge and learning a lot of novel techniques about the formation from the Shi Clan! This made him extremely excited and devoted, and he didn't care what the other two were doing.

glanced at the focused Aofeng, Ren Xiaoyao didn't bother him, and let him continue to study here. Then, he asked the patriarch of the Shi clan about some things, and made a few symbolic arrangements, and then stepped aside. For the technique of formation and the art of inscriptions, he didn't want to learn it, but after weighing it again, he still decided not to learn it.

A person's energy, after all, is limited. Although the current Ren Xiaoyao is smooth sailing in cultivation, and he has a fighting skill like the Nine Shadows Phantom Body, which can be used by one person as nine people, he still doesn't want to put his dabbling surface too wide.

His ultimate goal has always been very clear - to stand at the top of the world and become the strongest! Therefore, what he wants to do is also very clear, that is, to keep cultivating and constantly becoming stronger.

For this goal, he will always put cultivation first, supplemented by the practice and study of combat skills, and so on.

As for others, such as inscriptions, formations, and even alchemy, refining, etc., although they are also magical, they are not the way to go. If he learns those things, Ren Xiaoyao believes that with his talent and hard work, he can also learn and succeed, but it will take up a lot of his time and affect the progress of cultivation.

He thought very clearly, if he needed talismans, formations, or pills and treasures in the future, he didn't need to do it himself at all. As long as you have a lot of wealth, you can exchange these treasures. And he had so many friends that it would be easier to get these things from them when he needed them than to do them himself.
